BACKGROUND

Liquid crystal display (LCD) devices include LCD TVs, liquid crystaldisplays, etc. The liquid crystal display devices generally use LEDs asa light source. In the manufacturing process of the liquid crystaldisplay device, a plurality of LED light sources are positioned on astraight circuit board to form a light bar. The light bar is fixed to aside of heat dissipation aluminum board or of a back plate. After thecircuit board is powered on, the LED light source on the light bar isdriven to illuminate the LCD screen, thereby enabling people to viewtext or pictures displayed on a screen of the liquid crystal displaydevice.

However, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, since the LED light source has acertain light emitting angle, the light emitted by the LED light sourcecan not completely reach a corner formed by the light bar and the bottomof the LCD screen. The corner of the liquid crystal display device is atan edge of the light emitting angle of LED light source or beyond thelight emitting angle, and vignetting (dark corner) would be formed.Consequently, viewing and processing of the content at the corners ofthe LCD screen is affected.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are onlyrepresentative and are intended for describing exemplary embodiments ofthe disclosure. However, the disclosure can be embodied in many forms ofsubstitution, and should not be interpreted as merely limited to theembodiments described herein.

With the development of display technologies, liquid crystal displaydevice have gradually replaced the traditional anode-ray tube displaydevices due to some advantages such as slim shape, low power consumptionand no radiation. The liquid crystal display device can include a liquidcrystal display panel, a backlight module, and frame. As the liquidcrystal display panel gradually moves toward the narrow or theborderless, the requirements on the frame assembly are higher andhigher.

Liquid crystal display (LCD) devices include LCD TVs, liquid crystaldisplays, etc. The liquid crystal display devices generally use LEDs aslight sources. In the manufacturing process of the liquid crystaldisplay device, a plurality of LED light sources are positioned on astraight circuit board to form a light bar. The light bar is fixed to aside of heat dissipation aluminum board or of a back plate. After thecircuit board is powered on, the LED light source on the light bar isdriven to illuminate the LCD screen, thereby enabling people to viewtext or pictures displayed on a screen of the liquid crystal displaydevice. Usually the dark corner is the area where the light LED lightcan not project. The dark corner usually occurs in the corner of thedisplay panel. When the display device is assembled, the display panelis fixed on the frame. If the corner formed between adjacent side framesis not projected with light, the vignetting (dark corner) would beformed. The text or picture content on the vignetting area would not beviewed or viewed blur easily.

At present, the problem of forming the vignetting can not be avoided inthe LCD devices assembly generally. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2,portion A in FIG. 1 shows a dark corner area formed in the displaypanel. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of portion A of FIG. 1. The lightemitted by the LED 110 can not be projected to the corner B, thereby thecorner B area would form the vignetting. In the display panel, thecorner B area would be relatively dark, and not user-friendly viewing.

Referring to FIG. 3, one embodiment of the present disclosure provides adisplay device including a display panel, a backlight module and aframe. The display panel and the backlight module are located in theframe. The frame includes a back plate 140 therein. The backlight moduleincludes a light source used for emitting light to the display panel.The light source includes a light bar 120 with a plurality of lightemitting units 110. The light bar 120 is fixed on the back plate 140,and the light emitting units 110 on the light bar 120 are inclined withrespect to the back plate 140, so that portions of light emitted by thelight emitting units 110 near two ends of the back plate 140 on thelight bar 120 can be shifted to corners of the display panel.

In the above display device, the light emitting units on the light barare inclined with respect to the back plate, so that the portions oflight emitted by the light emitting units near two ends of the backplate on the light bar can be shifted to corners of the display panelcorrespondingly, therefore dark corner area can be avoided.Consequently, the display device can improve display effect, and be moreconducive to displaying and observing.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the light emitting units110 can be LED lamps.

The light bar 120 can be attached to the back plate 140 or fixed on theback plate 140 by screws.

The LED lamp 110 is fixed on a straight circuit board to form a lightbar. The circuit board can be made of flexible material, and have acertain degree of ductility and bending. Fixing the light bar on theside of the back plate can provide the display device with light.Generally, the light emitting unit has a certain light emitting angle(the light-emitting angle is usually the angle at which the lightgenerated by the light emitting unit deviates from the optical normal).The light emitting angles at both sides are symmetrical with the opticalnormal. As the corner of the border (corner) is difficult to set thelight emitting unit, the vignetting can be formed easily. Therefore, thevignetting phenomenon can be changed by adjusting the light emittingangle of the light emitting unit.

That the light emitting units on the light bar 120 is inclined withrespect to the back plate includes the light emitting units 110 on thelight bar 120 inclined with respect to the corresponding frame atcorresponding corners. The light emitting units 110 located in themiddle of the light bar 120 may be disposed in parallel with thecorresponding side frame. Referring to FIG. 3, the light bar can be seton one side of the frame. The light emitting unit 110 located in themiddle of the light bar is parallel to the corresponding side of theframe. From the middle of the light bar to the left, the right side ofthe light emitting unit 110 is padded to incline. From the middle of thelight bar to the right, the left side of the light emitting unit 110 ispadded to incline. The optical normal formed by the inclined lightemitting unit 110 is at a preset angle with respect to the planecorresponding frame, and the preset angle can be in the range from 60degrees to 90 degrees. Wherein the light emitting unit 110 may bedesigned as a left high right low structure or a right high left lowstructure so as to facilitate the assembly of the display device.

It should be noted that, FIG. 3 merely provides a schematic view of oneside of frame, and the left side and the right side are relative to eachother, and on the other corresponding sides may also be defined by theorientation words such as the upper portion or the lower portion.

As shown in FIG. 4, part of the light rays 130 emitted by the lightemitting units 110 of the light bar near the two ends of the back plateare offset to the corners of the display panel, so that the lightemitted by the light emitting unit 110 can project and cover the area Bat the corner to avoid vignetting, and therefore the display effect canbe improved. In detail, the light emitted by the leftmost light emittingunit can cover the dark corner area of the corresponding side, and thelight emitted by the rightmost light emitting unit may also cover thedark corner area of the corresponding side. In FIG. 4, the light rays130 emitted by the leftmost light emitting unit 110 may be the lightwith a maximum deviation from the corresponding optical normal angle,the light rays 130 emitted by the rightmost light emitting unit may bethe light with the largest deviation from the corresponding opticalnormal angle. What needs to be guaranteed is that the light from therightmost or leftmost LED that deviates from the corresponding opticalnormal with maximum angle coincides with the vertex of the correspondingcorner, or project beyond the vertex of the corresponding corner, so asto avoid vignetting.

When the light emitting angle of the light emitting unit 110 isadjusted, the light emitting unit 110 at the corresponding corner needto be adjusted, so that the light emitted by the light emitting unit 110can project and cover the area B at the corner to avoid vignetting. Atthe same time, in the display device, while avoiding vignetting, theinclined setting of the light emitting unit should also avoid to cause abottom of the display panel to have shadows or dark lines. Therefore,intersections between the light emitted by the adjacent light emittingunits 110 should be at least at the non-display area of the displaypanel aligned with the frame so as to ensure that there are no darklines under the display panel.

The display panel can includes a display area and a non-display areaconnected to the display area. The display area is an area fordisplaying display content, when the display panel is working normally.The display content can include text, pictures and background, and thedisplayed contents can be operated through the display area. However,when the display device is assembled, a part of the display panel needsto be embedded in the frame. This part of the display panel is mainlyfixed with the frame, and is referred to as a non-display area. Thedisplay area and non-display area have a clear boundary linetherebetween. The intersections formed by light emitted by two adjacentlight emitting units on the light bar must cover the boundary line so asto avoid the shadow or dark lines of the display panel. In thisembodiment, the part of intersections formed by the light emitted by thetwo adjacent light emitting units on the light bar are located on theboundary between the display area and the non-display area or on thenon-display area. Wherein the part of intersections being located on theboundary between the display area and the non-display area or on thenon-display area includes only one intersection point located on theboundary between the display area and the non-display area. Theintersections of the light emitted by the two adjacent light emittingunits are located on the boundary or in the non-display area, so as toprevent the display panel from generating shadows or dark lines.

Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display deviceincluding a display panel, a backlight module and a frame. The displaypanel and the backlight module are located in the frame. The frameincludes a back plate 140 therein. The backlight module includes a lightsource used for emitting light to the display panel. The light sourceincludes a light bar with a plurality of light emitting units. The lightbar is fixed on the back plate, the light emitting units on the lightbar are inclined with respect to the back plate.

Wherein, the light emitting units are inclined with respect to thecorresponding corners of the display panel from a middle to one end ofthe light bar, there is a preset angle between an optical normal of thelight emitting unit and a plane corresponding to the frame, and thepreset angle is in the range from 60 degrees to 90 degrees.

In the above display device, the light emitting units on the light barare inclined with respect to the back plate, so that the portions oflight emitted by the light emitting units near two ends of the backplate on the light bar can be shifted to corners of the display panelcorrespondingly, therefore dark corner area can be avoided.Consequently, the display device can improve display effect, and be moreconducive to displaying and observing.

One embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display deviceincluding a display panel, a backlight module and a frame. The displaypanel and the backlight module are located in the frame. The frameincludes a back plate 140 therein. The backlight module includes a lightsource used for emitting light to the display panel. The light sourceincludes a light bar 120 with a plurality of light emitting units 110.The light bar 120 is fixed on the back plate 140. Portions of lightemitted by the light emitting units 110 near two ends of the back plate140 on the light bar 120 can be shifted to corners of the display panel.

In the above display device, the portions of light emitted by the lightemitting units near two ends of the back plate on the light bar can beshifted to corners of the display panel correspondingly, therefore darkcorner area can be avoided. Consequently, the display device can improvedisplay effect, and be more conducive to displaying and observing.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the light emitting units110 can be LED lamps.

In one embodiment, The light bar fixed on the back plate includes thattwo ends of the light bar with light emitting units may be inclined withrespect to the back plate, so that portions of light emitted by thelight emitting units near two ends of the back plate on the light barcan be shifted to corners of the display panel correspondingly. Indetail, a part of the light bar on both ends of the back plate may beinclined with the back plate, so that the light emitting units on thepart of the light bar can be tilted at a certain angle, and the lightemitted by the light emitting units can be projected and covered area Bat the corner. Wherein, the size of the angle can be set according tothe actual situation, and various settings of different angles is notlimited herein.

In another embodiment, referring to FIG. 6, the light bar 120 can bearched relative to the back plate 140. The back plate 140 is disposedhorizontally or vertically. As such, the portions of light emitted bythe light emitting units 110 of the light bar 120 near two ends of theback plate 140 can be shifted to corners.

The arch shape can be a circular arc. When the light bar 120 is disposedin the arch shape with respect to the back plate 140, the light bars 120may be bent from the two ends of the back plate 140 toward a middle ofthe frame to form the arch shape, and distance between the back plate140 and the light emitting unit on the light bar 120 increases from bothends of the back plate 140 toward the middle of the back plate 140. Asshown in FIG. 6, the light emitting unit 110 on the light bar 120 is notspecifically shown. The light emitting units 110 are correspondingly inthe arc-shaped distribution on the light bar 120. As can be seen fromFIG. 6, the distance between the back plate 140 and the light emittingunit 110 on the light bar 120 increases from the both ends of the backplate 140 toward the middle of the back plate 140. The arched light bar120 can allows better adjustment of the light emitting angle of thelight emitting unit 110.

It should be pointed out that the arc is only one implementation thatcan be implemented in this embodiment, and the embodiment is not limitedto that the light bar implements the contents of the embodiment in othershapes.

When the light emitting angle of the light emitting unit 110 isadjusted, the light emitting unit 110 at the corresponding corner needto be adjusted, so that the light emitted by the light emitting unit 110can project and cover the area B at the corner to avoid vignetting. Atthe same time, in the display device, while avoiding vignetting, thearrangement of the arched light bar should also avoid to cause a bottomof the display panel to have shadows or dark lines. Therefore,intersections between the light emitted by the adjacent light emittingunits 110 should be at least at the non-display area of the displaypanel aligned with the frame so as to ensure that there are no darklines under the display panel.

For this reason, the light emitting units 110 are correspondinglydistributed in an arc shape on the light bar 120, the optical normalformed by the light emitting units 110 and the plane corresponding tothe frame define a preset angle. The optical normal of each lightemitting units 110 on the light bar 120 have a preset angle M with theplane corresponding to frame. As shown in FIG. 7, the preset angle M canmake the light emitted from the light emitting unit 110 cover the cornerB so as to avoid vignetting.

FIG. 7 shows only one of the light emitting units 110 on the light bar.The light emitting unit 110 is located at one end of the back plate 140and is the last light emitting unit at the end of the light bar. It canbe known that each light emitting unit on the light bar can becorrespondingly designed according to needs, and various light emittingunit can be adjusted by corresponding molds, and the implementation isnot described in detail.

An offset angle N formed between the optical normal of the lightemitting unit and the horizontal direction or vertical direction can bein the range from 0 degrees to 30 degrees. Correspondingly, the angle Mformed between the optical normal of the light emitting unit 110 and theplane corresponding to the frame can be in the range from 60 degrees to90 degrees. The light bar 120 has a straight line as a special arc, butin the embodiment, to avoid vignetting, this case is not included.Therefore, in the present embodiment, the preset angle M does notinclude 90 degrees.

The angle formed by the optical normal formed by the light emittingunits 110 and the plane corresponding to frame is between 60 degrees and90 degrees, so that the intersection between the light emitted by theadjacent LEDs can be at least at the non-display area of the displaypanel. Therefore, there are no dark lines under the display panel.

In order to avoid vignetting, the arc shape of the light bar 120 needsto be further designed. In another embodiment, a radius of curvature ofan arc point where the light emitting units 110 on the light bar 120near two ends of the back plate 140 respectively are located is lessthan a preset maximum value. The preset maximum value is a maximumradius of curvature of the arc point. At the arc point with the maximumradius of curvature, the light with the largest offset angle relative tooptical normal emitted by the light emitting units 110 near the two endsof the back plate 140 is projected to a vertex of a corner of thedisplay panel.

The larger the radius of curvature, the smaller degree of bending of thelight bar 120, and the light bar 120 closer to the back plate 140, whichmay easily leads to the vignetting. In order to avoid vignetting,according to the display panel size, such as length, height, etc., themaximum radius of curvature of the light bar 120 should be calculated,while the degree of bending of the light bar 120 is minimum andvignetting can be avoided. While design, the radius of curvature of thearched light bar should be smaller than the maximum radius of curvature.

It should be understood that the light bar 120 can be a circular arc ora non-circular arc. The non-circular arc may result in the lightemitting units at different positions of different radius of curvature.In this case, the preset maximum value is a maximum radius of curvatureof the arc point where the light emitting units near the two ends of theback plate of the light bar are located.

In this embodiment, the light emitting units 110 may be separatelydisposed on the arc-shaped light bar according to needs, including theposition, inclination angle and the like of the light emitting units 110on the light bar, and the distance between the light emitting units 110.

When the light emitting unit 110 emits light, a certain amount of heatis generated. If the heat is not dissipated in time, the lifetime of thedisplay device may be affected, and even to cause a malfunction. Forthis reason, heat dissipation material can be filled between the lightbar 120 and the back plate 140. As such, when the light emitting unitemits light, the heat dissipation material can absorb the heat anddissipate the heat to the outside so as to enhance the display effect.Wherein, the heat dissipation material can be heat dissipation glue orthe like.

Based on the above design, the appearance of dark lines on the displaypanel can be further avoided. The display panel can includes a displayarea and a non-display area connected to the display area. The displayarea is an area for displaying display content, when the display panelis working normally. The display content can include text, pictures andbackground, and the displayed contents can be operated through thedisplay area. However, when the display device is assembled, a part ofthe display panel needs to be embedded in the frame. This part of thedisplay panel is mainly fixed with the frame, and is referred to as anon-display area. The display area and non-display area have a clearboundary line therebetween. The intersections formed by light emitted bytwo adjacent light emitting units on the light bar must cover theboundary line so as to avoid the shadow or dark lines of the displaypanel. In this embodiment, the part of intersections formed by the lightemitted by two adjacent light emitting units on the light bar arelocated on the boundary between the display area and the non-displayarea or on the non-display area. Wherein the part of intersections beinglocated on the boundary between the display area and the non-displayarea or on the non-display area includes only one intersection pointlocated on the boundary between the display area and the non-displayarea. The intersections of the light by light emitted by the twoadjacent light emitting units are located on the boundary or in thenon-display area, so as to prevent the display panel from generatingshadows or dark lines.

Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display deviceincluding a display panel, a backlight module and a frame. The displaypanel and the backlight module are located in the frame. The frameincludes a back plate 140 therein. The backlight module includes a lightsource used for emitting light to the display panel. The light sourceincludes a light bar 120 with a plurality of light emitting units 110.The light bar 120 is fixed on the back plate 140. The light bar 120 andthe back plate 140 have the same shape, so that portions of lightemitted by the light emitting units 110 near two ends of the back plate140 on the light bar 120 are shifted to corners of the display panelcorrespondingly.

The light emitting units 110 can be LED lamps.

The two ends of the light bar and the corresponding back plate where thelight emitting unit is located may be inclined with respect to theframe, so that portions of light emitted by the light emitting unitsnear two ends of the back plate on the light bar can be shifted tocorners of the display panel correspondingly. In detail, the light barsand back plate at both ends of the frame are inclined, an inclined anglecan be set according to the specific situation.

Referring to FIG. 5, the light bar 120 and the back plate 140 are bentfrom both ends to the middle of the frame to form the same arc shape, sothat portion of light emitted by the light emitting units near two endsof the back plate on the light bar can be shifted to corners of thedisplay panel correspondingly.

The LEDs of light emitting units and a side frame corresponding to theback plate are not shown in FIG. 5, however it should be understood thatthe light emitting units are disposed on the light bar in the arc-shapeddistribution. A distance between the frame and the light emitting uniton the light bar increases from both ends toward the middle of theframe.

As shown in FIG. 5, after the light bar 120 and the back plate 140 arebent from both ends to the middle of the frame to form the same arcshape, in the process of assembling the display device, a fillermaterial may be added between the back plate 140 and the frame to fixthe back plate and the light bar, so as to avoid loosening of the lightbar during transportation and affecting the subsequent use.

When the light emitting angle of the light emitting unit 110 isadjusted, the light emitting unit 110 at the corresponding corner needto be adjusted, so that the light emitted by the light emitting unit 110can project and cover the area B at the corner to avoid vignetting. Atthe same time, in the display device, while avoiding vignetting, thearrangement of the arched light bar should also avoid to cause a bottomof the display panel to have shadows or dark lines. Therefore,intersections formed by the light emitted by the adjacent light emittingunits 110 should be at least at the non-display area of the displaypanel aligned with the frame so as to ensure that there are no darklines under the display panel.

For this reason, the light emitting units 110 are correspondinglydistributed in an arc shape on the light bar 120, the optical normalformed by the light emitting units 110 and the plane corresponding tothe frame define a preset angle. The optical normal of each lightemitting units 110 on the light bar 120 have a preset angle with theplane corresponding to frame. As shown in FIG. 7, the preset angle M canmake the light emitted from the light emitting unit 110 cover the cornerB so as to avoid vignetting.

FIG. 7 shows only one of the light emitting units 110 on the light bar.The light emitting unit 110 is located at one end of the back plate 140and is the last light emitting unit at the end of the light bar. It canbe known that each light emitting unit on the light bar can becorrespondingly designed according to needs, and various light emittingunit can be adjusted by corresponding molds, and the implementation isnot described in detail.

An offset angle N formed between the optical normal of the lightemitting unit and the horizontal direction or vertical direction can bein the range from 0 degrees to 30 degrees. Correspondingly, the angle Mformed between the optical normal of the light emitting unit 110 and theplane corresponding to the frame can be in the range from 60 degrees to90 degrees. The light bar 120 has a straight line as a special arc, butin the embodiment, to avoid vignetting, this case is not included.Therefore, in the present embodiment, the preset angle M does notinclude 90 degrees.

The angle formed by the optical normal formed by the LEDs of the lightemitting units 110 and the plane corresponding to frame is between 60degrees and 90 degrees, so that the intersection formed by the lightemitted by the adjacent LEDs can be at least at the non-display area ofthe display panel. Therefore, there are no dark lines under the displaypanel.

In order to avoid vignetting, the arc shape of the light bar 120 can befurther designed. In another embodiment, a radius of curvature of an arcpoint where the light emitting units 110 on the light bar 120 near twoends of the back plate 140 respectively are located is less than apreset maximum value. The preset maximum value is a maximum radius ofcurvature of the arc point. At the arc point with the maximum radius ofcurvature, the light with the largest offset angle relative to opticalnormal emitted by the light emitting units 110 near the two ends of theback plate 140 is projected to a vertex of a corner of the displaypanel.

The larger the radius of curvature, the smaller degree of bending of thelight bar, and the light bar closer to the back plate, which may easilyleads to the vignetting. In order to avoid vignetting, according to thedisplay panel size, such as length, height, etc., the maximum radius ofcurvature of the light bar 120 should be calculated, while the degree ofbending of the light bar is minimum and vignetting can be avoided. Whiledesign, the radius of curvature of the arched light bar should besmaller than the maximum radius of curvature.

It should be understood that the light bar can be a circular arc or anon-circular arc. The non-circular arc may result in different radius ofcurvature at different positions of the light emitting units LEDS. Inthis case, the preset maximum value is a maximum radius of curvature ofthe arc point where the light emitting units near the two ends of theback plate of the light bar are located.

In this embodiment, the light emitting units LEDs may be separatelydisposed on the arc-shaped light bar according to needs, including theposition, inclination angle and the like of the light emitting unitsLEDs on the light bar, and the distance between the light emitting unitsLEDs.

When the light emitting unit emits light, a certain amount of heat isgenerated. If the heat is not dissipated in time, the lifetime of thedisplay device may be affected, and even to cause a malfunction. Forthis reason, heat dissipation material can be filled between the lightbar and the back plate. As such, when the light emitting unit emitslight, the heat dissipation material can absorb the heat and dissipatethe heat to the outside so as to enhance the display effect. Wherein,the heat dissipation material can be heat dissipation glue or the like.
